Re: As Banjo Kazooie Turns 25, Xbox Is Still Keeping Us Waiting For A Revival

@Banjo-
Spot on.
They ,( xbox & nintendo), must be able to come up with sort of compromise or deal for the sake of the gamers. Just as they have with other titles.
A remaster would be great! Must be on Xbox & Switch though, that's the deal breaker.
Otherwise this game will be lost in time and generations younger than I will never know the joy of Diddy Kong Racing.
OR ....
You know what? Rare could could always make a Banjo Kazooie Racer.

Re: Report: Redfall Playtesters 'Shocked' At How Little The Game Changed During Development

I've been playing this for 20 hours or so. It is an ok game although it has many glitches. However I do see the huge potential for single player. This game could of been awesome but its probably too late. It doesn't need patches , it needs a complete overhaul.

The leveling up and menu system is a mess for example, they couldn't get the basics right. There are lots of good ideas in this game they need to learn from their mistakes, take the positives and move on to the next project while I wonder what could of been.

Re: Redfall Physical Release Won't Contain A Disc, Download Code Included Instead

I've been gaming all my life. I'm 5something I've always bought physical up until I decided to buy series S.
I was worried at the time, however been digital all the way since then.
I missed the boxes mainly for the art work I think. On the plus side I am contributing a tiny something towards saving our planet plus saving space. I have nearly an entire storage unit full of games , dvd and video tape.

So welcome to the future, the future is now.

Re: The 'Excellent' Marvel's Midnight Suns Now Has A Free Trial On Xbox

Nic-Noc20th-C

This is very welcome. I think all games above £35 should have a demo or trial these days.
Gaming can be expensive and I have made a few full price mistakes over my 40 + years gaming life. In this tough economic time if a publisher thinks that their game is good enough to buy they should give us all a crack at it first.
Don't trust many reviews these days as I have learnt that scores are dependent on individual tastes.
Well done Firaxis! I shall give this a go and it will possibly lead to purchase if I like it.

Re: Xbox Fans Left Disappointed With Lack Of First-Party Reveals At The Game Awards 2022

Nic-Noc20th-C

Yes , I was disappointed.
I do think Xbox have a lot planned considering a pretty quiet 2022.
I'd like to know how soon is soon before we see anything beyond what we already know.
Could they at least give us an estimated date for these unannounced games?
Need some positive XBox news after price increases , lack of 1st party games and negative Activision merger news this week.

In Phil I trust.
